*unedited so it contains lots of grammar mistakes*
I pressed my hand against my stomach with a soft touch. A loud grumble came from it and I closed my eyes with a sigh. I knew I shouldn't have listened to Liam. I was hungry and pissed which was not a good mixture. I spun my head towards the woman who stood over me. "I'm not pregnant!" I snapped at her making her mouth open in shock. She was probably horrified that she tried to kill an non-existing baby. "I-" she tried to justify herself but I cut her off. "you tried to harm me and a child if it had been there"
She breathed out in shock, looking around her to see if anyone actually believed me. "you're accusing me?" she asked as if its the most nonsense thing she's heard. Yes Bitch, I am.
"Adeline" Liam's deep voice boomed in my ear and I glanced up to see him standing there. His eyes scanned me carefully and I huffed. I squinted my eyes closed, embracing myself for Liam to kill me for making a scene but instead I felt his cold arms hold me. I opened my eyes and stared at the man in front of me.
His eyes scanned every inch of my body and his hands ran against my skin delicately, as if he's comforting me. "are you hurt?" he asks, flicking his eyes between me and my body. I sensed panic in his voice. Was he worried about me? I couldn't tell because his eyes showed both worry and murder. "I-I'm fine" I began to stutter and mentally slapped myself. He closed his eyes and pressed his forehead against my shoulder "Thank God" he whispered with a sigh of relief.
At that moment I felt it. My heart sending a electrical shock through my body, causing a tingling sensation. I awkwardly, tugged on Liam's sleeve and he took that as an indication to get the F off of me. He snaked his arms around my waist and pulled me up. I gritted my teeth in pain.Jesus could that woman have thrown me any harder?
"Aunt Katherine" Liam breathed "I understand you have something against me but please don't touch my Fiancee"
He didn't give her a chance to speak and whisked me away, pushing past the crowd of people. I didn't dare to speak as we got inside the car and he began to drive. I kept glancing at him every few seconds, waiting for him to say something. The awkwardness was killing me.
"what?" He finally speaks.
I quickly shake my head "nothing"
He gives me a side glance before speaking again "you alright?"
A smile crept up on my lips. He was worried about me after all. "yeah" I replied.
The silence was back again and I cursed at myself for not making conversation quick enough.

"what was all that worrying about?" I asked him curiously referring back to the party.
"an act" he replies simply, rejecting any hope of care he may have had for me. My lips form into a scowl as the silence returns."Your staying at mines" he said clearing his throat and cautiously looking at me. I Snorted "no way"
He doesn't take that as an answer and still heads to his place. "What about that dinner you promised me?" I ask, slamming the door closed. He threw his keys somewhere and ran his hands through his perfectly imperfect hair. "Shit I forgot" he replied "I'll cook you dinner"
I stared at him "you can cook?"
He smiled sticking his tongue out in amusement "I can try"
That doesn't answer my question.
I rolled my eyes and followed behind him to his gorgeous kitchen which I obviously had a sneak peak at while I was staying last week. He takes his blazer off and rolls his shirt sleeve up, revealing his strong masculine arms. "what should I make?" he asks as he begins to rage through his fridge. "What can you make?" I retort with a questionable expression. He didn't answer and began to open packets and do his own thing. He actually seemed like he knew what he was doing, surprisingly.
I take the whole damn thing back. This guy was about to burn the whole house down. "are you crazy?!" I shriek, grabbing the burnt pot and throwing it in the sink. I quickly turned the stove off and coughed uncontrollably at the smoke. The fire alarm was going off and Liam stood there like his life was over "fuck" He grunted and in a split moment the sprinklers went off, showering the whole kitchen with water.
I closed my eyes and sighed. We both continued to stand there until the sprinklers finally turned off and we were drenched in our clothes. My dress was completely ruined. "I'll get a towel" Liam said as he walked past me. "You'll need more than a freaking towel!" I scream at him. He turned to face me.
I took the opportunity to look at the mess he was. His hair fell to his face like he came out of the shower, his body revealing itself through the drenched white shirt and his eyes observing mine. Jesus, I just got caught again. "see something you like?" He asked with a wink following behind.
"No" I lied and failed with a come-back. "come" He orders and I follow. I drag the dress along whilst I try to make it up the stairs. Liam didn't even bother to stop and help. What a gentlemen (!) The struggle was finally over and I managed to get to his bedroom. "here" Liam says before throwing a towel, a pair of sweatpants and an oversized hoodie.

I mutter a thank you and he turns around, starting to get changed. I quickly dry myself and find a corner where I was out of his view to get changed. I drag myself to his bed and drop myself on to it. It felt so comfortable. I should ask him where he got his bed sheets from. Liam stumbles over and lays beside me.
The moment was sadly ruined by my stomach making a whale noise. I was starving. Liam chuckled "thanks for reminding me of my fail attempt of making dinner"
I shrug "I can't help it" I rub my stomach and frown at him "me and the baby are hungry" I tease causing him to throw a pillow at my face. He snorts and shakes his head in amusement. He had a cute smile
The moment once again was ruined but by the sound of the doorbell. It didn't take long for it to stop and I could hear the sound of the door slamming closed. "Liam!" A male's voice called from downstairs and I looked at him in panic. was it a burglar or a murder? wait, why would a murder call. "fuck" Liam sighed in frustration.
"hide" He simply said, before practically jumping off the bed and stuffing me under the covers. "what why?" I ask fighting him off. He grabbed me by my waist and held me down as he pulled the bed sheet over me. "if they find you. they will kill me" He whispers and my eyes widen in shock. Was he talking about murders?! I nod and curl up in a ball as the sound of elephants running up the stairs could be heard. The bedroom door flung open and voices began to yell.
"Liam!" they sang.
"guys.." Liam grunted as if he knew them. I bit my lip. I didn't dare to make a move.
"where is she?" one asked, clearly referring to me. "Who?" Liam replied.
They all laughed "there's girls shoes downstairs and a dress on the floor, we're not stupid"
I cussed under my breath. I shouldn't have left the soaking dress lying on the floor. Before Liam could reply I felt footsteps approach me and soon enough the bed-sheets were ripped off revealing a group of men staring down at me. I awkwardly smile "hi"
They all laugh and grab onto Liam and tackle him to the floor. "you just wanted to keep her all to yourself" One of them teased whilst Liam struggled to free himself. By the looks of it, they definitely did not look like burglars or murders. I awkwardly watch the men fight with each other and practically strangling Liam. "well" the green-eyed man spoke as he looked at me "aren't you going to introduce us?"
Liam's eyes flickered over to me "no-" he was cut of by another one of them, sitting on him. Now there was a total of 3 sitting on Liam and two holding his arms. This is what he must've meant when he said they'll kill him. Liam groaned "alright" he said, wincing in pain "let me go first"
all five of them stood up and grinned at me. Liam rolled his eyes and licked his lips before speaking "this is Adeline" he announced. "Adeline, meet my friends"
My mouth fell open as I stared at the five men who I might add were staring directly back at me too. "you have friends?" I blurt out and slapped my mouth after realising. That didn't come out right. Holy potato
The men laughed and uttered "oooh" at Liam who was smirking at me. Not the 'you're cute, I like you' smirk but the 'do you seriously want to die?' smirk. "You're such a joker, baby" Liam said, emphasising the on 'baby'. I faked a smile.
"Christopher" The green-eyed man announced as he held his hand out "call me Chris". I nodded and shook his firm hands. His beautiful green eyes dug into mine. I smiled awkwardly, trying to take my hand back but he held onto it firmly. "that's enough" another man with blonde hair said, pushing Chris away. "Asher" said the blonde hair and brown eyes guy.
They all introduced themselves one by one. "William"
"Jasper"
"and Alexander, Alex for short"
I nodded as I took all the information in. They all had distinctive features which made it easier to remember the names. Is it bad to say they were all good looking?
"how old are you?" Chris asked, curiously. I noticed he didn't take his eyes of me not even for moment. "19" I replied back. They all burst out in growls "shes 19!" Asher exclaimed, slapping Liam hard on the back. "She's just a child!" William yelled, holding Liam in a chocking position. Liam looked like he was going to murder them all and I silently watched. If only I had popcorn.
"did you fuck her?" Chris asked with a laugh. I chocked on air at the question. What sort of a question is that even? "excuse me-" I began to speak but they all ignored me and taunted Liam. "no" Liam groaned whilst glaring at me. How is this my fault?
"Liar!" Jasper shrieked.
I sighed and pulled the bed-sheets over my self and laid down.
"She's just a child!" Asher cried. "A child!" Alex joined him.
I rolled my eyes.
This is going to be a long night
